PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

**Item 1.**Legal Proceedings

Item 103 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires disclosure of certain legal proceedings that involve governmental authorities as a party and that the company reasonably believes would result in $1.0 million or more of monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, under federal, state and local laws that have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or primarily for the purpose of protecting the environment. The following proceedings include those matters relating to first quarter 2026 and any material developments with respect to matters previously reported in Chevron’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

As previously disclosed, on May 26, 2023, Chevron’s refinery in El Segundo, California notified the U.S. EPA that it had inadvertently overstated the number of biofuel credits generated by co-processing in 2022 in violation of the Renewable Fuel Standard program. Resolution of the alleged violations resulted in the payment of a civil penalty of $1,072,634 in April 2026.

As previously disclosed, on June 26, 2025, the Colorado Energy & Carbon Management Commission (ECMC) issued a notice alleging violations of certain ECMC rules following the loss of well control incident that occurred in Galeton, Colorado, on April 6, 2025. On March 18, 2026, ECMC approved an Administrative Order by Consent (AOC) that will resolve the matter. Pursuant to the AOC, a total civil penalty of $1,534,500 was assessed. Chevron paid $500,000 of the assessed penalty in April 2026 and is expected to fund one or more public projects in an amount up to $1,034,500 on or before August 31, 2026.
